In a recent year,
23.3
%
of all registered doctors were female. If there were
46,800
female registered doctors that year, what was the total number of registered doctors?
To find the total number of registered doctors, we can use the following formula:
Total number of registered doctors = (Number of female registered doctors * 100) / Percentage of female registered doctors
Given:
Percentage of female registered doctors = 23.3%
Number of female registered doctors = 46,800
Plugging in the values:
Total number of registered doctors = (46,800 * 100) / 23.3 %
Now we can calculate this:
Total number of registered doctors = 200,858.37
Rounding this value to the nearest whole number:
Total number of registered doctors = 200,858
Therefore, the total number of registered doctors in that year was 200,858.
To find the total number of registered doctors, we can use the following formula:
Total number of registered doctors = (Number of female registered doctors / Percentage of female registered doctors) * 100
Given that 23.3% of all registered doctors were female and there were 46,800 female registered doctors, we can substitute these values into the formula:
Total number of registered doctors = (46,800 / 23.3) * 100
Now, let's calculate the total number of registered doctors:
Total number of registered doctors = (46,800 / 0.233) * 100
Total number of registered doctors = 201,288.7
Rounded to the nearest whole number, the total number of registered doctors is 201,289. Therefore, the total number of registered doctors that year was approximately 201,289.
Let n be the total amount of registered doctors that year. Then:
0.233n=46800
n=46800/0.233=200858.37 doctors registered (rounds down to 200,858)
